Chapter 103 Ci'an Hall

Recently, there are two most lively events in Kyoto. One is the opening of Ci'an Church, which raises orphans and young children, and the charity sale.I heard that this matter was proposed by the "Little God of Wealth" Lu Weimang, Lord Lu, to his majesty. The "Little God of Wealth" believes that Dagan has the Qionglai Pass and several commercial routes. As a beneficiary, he should give Leshan alms and give back to the people, so he proposed that Kyoto be the first place to hold a charity sale. It is used for the opening of Ci'an Church.

Another thing is still related to the "Little God of Wealth", that is, as the initiator of Ci'an Church, he was squeezed out, which led to the loss of the good name of this promise.

"Have you heard? The host of the Charity Bazaar in Ci'an Hall was rejected by Huo Hou, the fiancé of the "Little God of Wealth"!"

"Really? It shouldn't be. It's a great merit to open Ci'an Church to raise orphans and young children. How could Huo Hou push it for the "Little God of Wealth" for no reason? Don't talk nonsense, Huo Hou is not narrow-minded people."

"Where am I talking nonsense, isn't my third uncle and his nephew's second uncle ranked among the fifth rank in the imperial court? That morning, His Majesty brought out the "Little God of Wealth" for court discussion, and Huo Hou said that Master Lu Weimang was not kind. Being a friend is not suitable for presiding over this Ci'an Hall. Besides, Master Lu is still young, and he may make mistakes in doing such a big thing, so he wants to turn down this job for Master Lu."

"Hey, it's confusing to care about such a great merit. I heard that the imperial court will erect a stele and engrave it. If Huo Hou pushes it, Master Lu will definitely blame Huo Hou."

"Don't be Huo Hou worried that the name of the "Little God of Wealth" is too big, so that his husband will be weak in the future, right? Haha...why do you look at me like that?"

"Do you think Huo Hou is you? Huo Hou is a weak husband, Huo Hou is our hero, whoever has such a reputation for fame, can't surpass Huo Hou's real achievements!"

"That's right. But Huo Hou is too careful. But, who is the presidency of this Ci'an Hall?"

"I heard that it is the Duke of Niu. The eldest son of the Niu family works as a supervisor at the Qionglai Pass, and several descendants of his family have also opened up the business route from Jingyang to Qionglai. Since the imperial court held the charity sale in the name of Qionglai, apart from "Little God of Wealth" "Lu Weimang, the host of the Niu family, is justifiable. Moreover, Niu Guogong has high morals and can call on more people to participate. In the follow-up matter of Ci'an Hall, Niu Guogong can also better undertake and operate it."

"Although it's a pity, if the Little God of Wealth is compared with Niu Guogong, Niu Guogong is indeed more suitable."

"That's right. After all, Huo Hou is wholeheartedly for the court. He pushed this job for his fiancée and chose a more suitable Duke Niu."

"Hey, that's it, the young couple are not sure how to quarrel in private. How can Mr. Lu be so willing to give up the name he advocated? Anyway, if it were me, I would have to scratch his face!"

"Do you think that the "Little God of Wealth" is a worthless person like you? He has high achievements and is young. Instead of being on the cusp of the storm, it is better to give it to Niu Guogong. This time, Niu Guogong has to show affection again. Is the benefit much better than the fame? It is said that Huo Hou is far-sighted, and will plan for the little fiancee."

...

In the market, there are endless debates about the charity sale of Ci'an Hall and who initiated it. At this time, if you stop in the street, you will hear the discussions in the streets and alleys. If you step into a teahouse or restaurant, it is also a debate about fame and fortune.The world is bustling with fame and fortune.For a time, not only the people of Kyoto were keen on this matter, but also merchants and gentry with keen information came to Kyoto.

"Lord Lu, do you have any free time right now? Regarding the upcoming charity sale in Ci'an Hall, I still need to ask Master Lu for his opinion on some matters."

Niu Guogong, who has always been bold, suddenly appeared in Chunxi Hall. Lu Weimang quickly stood up and saluted, "Guogong is serious, what's the matter with you, just say it. In the next few days, I don't have any important errands, and I can cooperate with you at any time. "

Huo Jing, who works in the same room as Lu Weimang, also stood up and waved his hands to Niu Guogong, who returned the greeting with a smile.

"It's good if you have free time. You just gave a general introduction to the notes you gave to His Majesty. What do you think about the charity sale?"

After Niu Guogong took his seat, he directly asked about Lu Weimang's original plan, and Lu Weimang didn't hide his secrets, and directly stated his original plan.

"The official has inspected in the early stage. There is a ready-made house in the southern city of Kyoto, which can be used as the address of Ci'an Hall. You just need to clean up and invite some widows to come over to take care of orphans and young children. You can ask for the plaque of Ci'an Hall Your Majesty's imperial pen, I think His Majesty will agree."

"As for the bazaar, you can invite a group of people privately to hold the bazaar in the name of the initiator. Originally, I wanted to invite some businessmen to ask for alms. Now that you are hosting, of course the scope can be expanded. You can make a batch of invitations, Invite some famous people in Kyoto, whether they are high-ranking dignitaries or wealthy businessmen, as long as they are known as charitable people in the past, they can invite them. It is stated on the invitation that no donations are required, just bring A charity item is auctioned at a bazaar, and the proceeds from the auction will be donated to Ci’an Hall in the name of the owner of the item.”

Lu Weimang explained some common operating modes of charity dinners in previous lives.

This was also the inspiration given to Lu Weimang by shopkeeper Yu of Zhucui Pavilion that day.Even if Lu Weimang paid for the two red treasures, they still felt hot in his hands, so it would be better to donate them through a channel similar to the Charity Sale of Ci'an Hall.

Now no matter what the name is or how outsiders talk about it, my original plan can finally be realized.

"Niu Guogong, you must give me an invitation card when the time comes. I have two rare rubies in my hand, and I want to donate them to Ci'an Hall. By the way, you can also register the donated items in advance and release them Catalogue, this will not only promote the good name of the donor, but also attract people who are interested in these donations, killing two birds with one stone, don’t you think?”

Niu Guogong smiled heartily, "That's great, as expected of the "Little God of Wealth". Once you make a move, it will be a good strategy for fame and fortune. It is much better than those people in the household department who hold account books and want to count the slaves in other people's fields. You say the same It’s about making money, so why do the people in the household department know to stare at their own people, and don’t think about how to deal with outsiders?”

What Niu Guogong was talking about was His Majesty's recent plan to measure the land in the world. This matter is too involved, and Lu Weimang is inconvenient to express his opinion, so he just smirked and dealt with it.

Fortunately, Niu Guogong just complained a few words, not to make Lu Weimang have to express his opinion, so after getting Lu Weimang's plan, he exchanged a few words and went back to make plans.

Lu Weimang sent Niu Guogong away, wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and returned to the main hall.

"According to your method just now, this is indeed a good thing for both business and fame. Will you blame me and push this matter out of your hands?"

Huo Jing looked at Lu Weimang who came back and said.

Sometimes people don't need to pay attention to profits, but they must inevitably care about reputation.

Now, because of his unwarranted worries, Lu Weimang was made to give up such an opportunity. Huo Jing didn't know whether it was right to do so, but if he was allowed to choose, it would be possible risks on the one hand, and fame and fortune on the other, he would still do this Do.Even if there is a one-tenth of a percent risk, it's not worth the risk.

Lu Weimang exaggeratedly breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't regret it, I originally had a simple idea. Now that I think about it, I need to deal with many people, which is very complicated. Now His Majesty asked me to do it. It also has to be pushed out. Moreover, it is the Duke of the country who did this, so that there is such a big momentum today. If I do it myself, I am small and weak. I guess I can only mobilize a few merchants who have been taken advantage of, like some wealthy families , you won’t talk to me!”

Lu Weimang said it easily, and Huo Jing also knew that Lu Weimang was afraid of trouble, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "I won't send you back for a few days. There are different opinions from the outside world, so we just pretend to be awkward. It can also reduce the sight and danger on you. Of course, the bazaar will definitely stir up troubles in Kyoto these days, and the people will be chaotic. Don’t ride a horse and go up and down these few days. Take a carriage, so I feel more at ease. And these few days The weather is not too hot today. I have a soft armor that can protect my vitals. I will go home later and ask Ding Yi to deliver it to you at a later date. From tomorrow on, you will wear soft armor , and go out in a carriage, will you?"

Although he was asking about Lu Weimang's thoughts, Huo Jing's expression was serious, and Lu Weimang couldn't refuse.

"I see."

Lu Weimang nodded obediently.

"Well, remember to be obedient." Huo Jing pulled Lu Weimang to sit down in front of him, "I can't accompany you these few days, so I have to take advantage of the hustle and bustle of the charity sale to step up my efforts to push that spy into a corner and let him I thought this charity sale was the last chance to take advantage of the current, and forced him to do it. Under the double surveillance of me and His Majesty, as long as he does it, everything will be settled."

Huo Jing said, looking far away, looking into the distance.Apparently there were spies from Northern Xinjiang in the court, and they were also suspected to be important ministers in the court. This matter was like a huge rock, weighing on the hearts of Huo Jing and His Majesty, and it was also like a sharp sword hanging over Dagan's head.

Think about it, if there is a talented person in the court, if they are assassinated by spies in an unexpected way, or if there is any disturbance in the court, natural disasters and man-made disasters, Beijiang will immediately know, and also know the countermeasures of the court. How can Dagan be safe if he makes damage?The court is unstable, and it is the entire Dagan people who suffer.If the spies are not found for a day, they will be restrained for a day, and they will not be able to make drastic reforms and development.Day by day, the vigor of working hard will be consumed.

That's why His Majesty and Huo Jing spared no effort to force Xie to jump out.Even if it is to pay some price, it is not hesitating.

"I will protect myself." Lu Weimang promised.
